Reinforced concrete infilled frames have been studied over the years along with the infilled openings. To resist the lateral loads that are applied on the frames, stress is transferred from the reinforced concrete (RC) to infill, which leads to brittle c...

Pavement deterioration is mainly caused by high traffic loading and by increased levels of runoff water resulting from storms, floods, or other reasons. Consequently, this issue can be efficiently solved by employing permeable pavement, such as permeable...

Fibre ropes offer beneficial properties for mooring of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs). However, the mooring line?s stiffness is both load-history and load-rate dependent. A quasi-static stiffness is observed for slow loading, with a higher stiff...
